Verify your account

[alpine pumice]

[molten bobcat]

[orchid breach]

I wanted to do the giveaway

[alpine pumice]

then do it

[silver forge]

how do you think I have got my roles

[orchid breach]

What’s the minimum

[cerulean knoll]

Hello chat 👋.
Quick question
If I download the VPN file, does it work throughout the module for every section or each section has a different file I need to download

[alpine pumice]

with the old verification system that is no longer valid

[molten bobcat]

It should work for all academy content

[silver forge]

I'm not going to re-do it if some moron can't migrate between implementations properly.

[orchid breach]

Works for all

[alpine pumice]

okay i guess you can't join the giveaway then

[cerulean knoll]

So with one VPN file I can use it for all the modules

[molten bobcat]

Ya

[orchid breach]

Ja

[cerulean knoll]

Noted. Thank you

[alpine pumice]

also a bit harsh

[molten bobcat]

Different targets, same subnet

[cerulean knoll]

Thanks

[orchid breach]

What’s a subnet

[thick forge]

 Target is spawning...

[molten bobcat]

A section of a network 🙂

[orchid breach]

Wut

[molten bobcat]

Do you not know about subnetting?

[orchid breach]

I do cloud

I thought we’ve talked enough for you to know me but I guess you forgot about me already

/verifycertification

[orchid breach]

I bet you do

[molten bobcat]

But yeh I call networks subnets

Because technically it's a section of a larger network

This subnet = this network

For me

[orchid breach]

How many bits does /27 borrow?

[molten bobcat]

Oh fuck you

Uhh

[orchid breach]

https://tenor.com/view/ritz-ritz-bits-snacks-ritz-bits-peanut-butter-ritz-crackers-gif-17952622322029320099

[orchid breach]

You would like that

[molten bobcat]

00000000.00000000.00000000.00011111

I believe that's how many bits

So 5

[orchid breach]

How

[alpine pumice]

so infinite bits

[orchid breach]

You have 0

For a 27

[alpine pumice]

there are an infinite amount of numbers between 1 and 2

[orchid breach]

Bro took comptia

https://tenor.com/view/com-ptia-gif-20600448

[molten bobcat]

So this is how I was taught by my professor to calculate subnets

[sharp beacon]

he said i know zeno paradox

[molten bobcat]

Ipv4 is 32 bits.

Each byte is 8 bits

[orchid breach]

I forgive you

[terse dirge]

What's up gamers

[sharp beacon]

hello caeld

[alpine pumice]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pITq64bSbMQ

[molten bobcat]

So I took each bit in the octets

And I counted until I had 27 zeroes

[alpine pumice]

learn subnetting by hand

[molten bobcat]

And 5 1s

So you reserve 5 bits for hosts

[terse dirge]

Idk put it in a calculator twin

[orchid breach]

But we at /27

[thick forge]

[molten bobcat]

Oooo I'm correct but the opposite!!!

It's 27 ones and 5 zeroes

My mistake

It's been a few years

[orchid breach]

This

Is what is correct

Brain feels better now

Yeehaw brother

[orchid breach]

Ja

[alpine pumice]

@molten bobcat now quick, what event id and logon type for a failed rdp connection

[molten bobcat]

Fuck uhh

A network logon is a type 3

Is rdp type 10?

[alpine pumice]

i was thinking 3 but i'd have to look it up

[molten bobcat]

ITS TEN

FUCK IM SO GOOD

[orchid breach]

Isn’t 3 SMB

[molten bobcat]

3 is any network logon

[livid vine]

I cancelled quite a few subscriptions tonight to cut costs. It's amazing how these can add up over time. How much do you guys spend on subscriptions?

[orchid breach]

but not RDP

[molten bobcat]

Rdp is type 10

[orchid breach]

[orchid breach]

You are not a frog

[undone fossil]

This is true

I just think frogs are cool

[orchid breach]

Why

[undone fossil]

Because they vary so so much and many have very specialised traits

[alpine pumice]

i'm gonna need everyone to post their most banger song in #magical-tunes

[orchid breach]

Like

[undone fossil]

also theyre insanely dumb so that helps

[orchid breach]

Bruh

I recently been watching a bunch of honey badgers videos

[undone fossil]

such as - the suriname toad doesnt lay frogspawn in still water like normal, theyre instead laid in the mother's back

and the frogs hatch out as froglets, skipping the tadpole stage

[tough abyss]

what's that?

[orchid breach]

Interesting

[undone fossil]

also i dont recommend looking up the suriname toadlets videos, kinda cursed honestly

[orchid breach]

https://tenor.com/view/honey-badger-no-shit-gif-11346317

[undone fossil]

also dart frogs give their tadpoles piggy back rides

[orchid breach]

Well now imma look it up thanks

[undone fossil]

enjoy 😅

[orchid breach]

It’s always the don’t recommend that we end up doing lol

[undone fossil]

true it does pique the interest

[orchid breach]

Did you watch apocalypto?

[undone fossil]

prob not doesnt ring a bell

[orchid breach]

Hm

I wanted to ask the frog they used there

Let me find a clip

https://youtu.be/ofTC7aJQI7I

[undone fossil]

so normally id say dart frog since that's where they got their name but im pretty sure that's a painted frog

[orchid breach]

Bro you already posted Tool, more than enough..

[orchid breach]

Like fake?

[undone fossil]

ill post 2 now

[undone fossil]

yeah it looks like a normal tree frog just painted

[orchid breach]

WTH lol

[undone fossil]

dart frogs are much smaller (like 3cm), and something like a cane toad would look much different

[orchid breach]

Well that’s where I knew those things had poison

Didn’t know frogs like that existed

[undone fossil]

interestingly, dart frogs are only poisonous if they have their natural diet

so if you dont feed them specific poison bug -> theyre fine to handle as pets

[orchid breach]

That is interesting

So basically the bugs they eat have poison

[supple plume]

i come to terms where I know I hate windows

and I agree with myself

[orchid breach]

The fact that its windows?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrjiryDfP3A Check out this song

Gathering regrets
Beyond loneliness
Restless lunacy (release me)
From my agony
The silent waves are calling
Piercing louder through my brains

Weathering distress
Offering collapse
Silent dream state (awake me)
From my endless pain
The silent waves are calling
And now they're telling me to come

If I should fall into the sea
Where you still wait for me
If I could wake you from your sleep
And fly away from here

🤘

Slaughtering regrets
Beyond emptiness
Restless agony (release me)
From my lunacy
And so I'll take this ride
Into the streams of the sky

Man I fucking love this song

the burgers at defcon weren't too bad tbh

you should go to cactuscon vro

it won't be that hot because it's in February

[dusky jacinth]

Whiterabbit walkthrough was dope\

quick question though, does Hydra have a --local-auth option like nxc does?

nvm

[alpine pumice]

doesn't it do local auth by default?

i don't actually know

[dusky jacinth]

I believe so? That looks liek what i'm reading

[alpine pumice]

i would assume so

ad login is probably like domain\user

[dusky jacinth]

"hydra relies on the target service's authentication mechanism and the user's configuration of credentials and attack parameters"

[dusky jacinth]

that makes sense

[storm coral]

I mean, it's connected, my rank is up to date as you can see😅. Or should i do it every season? Or it was added two month ago?

[alpine pumice]

The old verification system was replaced by a new one, you have to verify with the new method (linking your discord account on the htb website) to get the verified badge

[storm coral]

Oh, ok, I thought i already had done it like this, thx for the info

[alpine pumice]

if it's already connected, disconnect and reconnect it

then you'll get the badge

why not just use one at a time?

[supple rain]

Well, I thought it would be more convenient so as not to break the connection with the fortress and try a new box. But apparently yes, when I turn off the second VPN, pings start coming immediately...

[terse dirge]

why would it be more convenient? it takes like 2 seconds to start up a new openvpn connection

[supple rain]

I don't know, at that moment it seemed logical to me)))

[supple plume]

[terse dirge]

proud to say that I got my embeds before I bought nitro

[shadow patio]

hi, how can I add htb badges to my discord profile?

[supple plume]

Certificates?

./verifycertification

[shadow patio]

the badges present on my profile htb

like this one i have in my name "HTB"

[obtuse fern]

Its already there? Not sure your question... you can only have one guild tag active at a time

[supple plume]

good morning

[shadow patio]

i want to add more badges that i have in htb to my discord profile

ah i think i'v done linking my htb acc to discord

sorry for wasting time

[meager kernel]

I don't understand what you're saying

What badge do you mean

[terse dirge]

Marcie, you should go to cactuscon vro

[obtuse fern]

? The badges under your account dont sync here, its not set up that way

[spark shore]

Can someone explain the new profile to me, why does it say 0% when I have solved three active boxes? Also, can we have the old look back? 😭

[obtuse fern]

With what money?

[obtuse fern]

If you took a break for a bit, any boxes that fell off you have to re-pwn that many boxes before the progress bar moves

[shadow patio]

the server tag discord

[meager kernel]

Oh the server guild tag?

You can only attach one server tag to your profile at a point

[mystic harbor]

get eyes

[meager kernel]

Right now you have attached HTB guild tag

[shadow patio]

yes, but i can assign only this one?

[meager kernel]

Yes

Only one at a time

[shadow patio]

i think this is related to badges on htb site

[obtuse fern]

Its not

[shadow patio]

ok, thank you, my bad

[obtuse fern]

Its a discord feature, not htb

[spark shore]

I thought the formula was just a percentage of active boxes + active challenges? right now I have 3/20 active boxes but it says 0%

[meager kernel]

It's possible that those active boxes would have retired

[supple plume]

https://help.hackthebox.com/en/articles/5185158-introduction-to-hack-the-box

[spark shore]

no, I mean active active

[meager kernel]

Oh then idk

Reload the website I think

[obtuse fern]

if you fell below the % to be pro hacker, you have to re-pwn to that %

the % is between your current rank and the next rank, it's not an overall %

[meager kernel]

I want to reach Pro Hacker

[spark shore]

ah ok this makes sense, so they removed the overall one and left the rank progress only

[obtuse fern]

and since you don't have enough active content to be at the pro-hacker% it's 'not counting' until you hit that % again

[meager kernel]

And get some certs too

[supple plume]

lets do it

[meager kernel]

(after exams)

After exams I'm gonna try and reach Elite

And learn AD too

[spark shore]

I got it, thank you, I was thinking of the old overall progress bar

[terse dirge]

how's void linux?

[meager kernel]

Is HTB the LeetCode of Cybersecurity?

[supple plume]

I asked you a question

about that

[terse dirge]

I wouldn't compare the 2. HTB requires more skills than leetcode

[meager kernel]

Hmmm

[supple plume]

for some reason the flash drive is not bootable

[meager kernel]

Doesn't LeetCode also require skills though?

[supple plume]

I'm kinda giving up for now

[terse dirge]

reimage it with etcher

[supple plume]

I tried etcher, unebooting and the dd command

bitch you can't deploy a wordpress starter

[meager kernel]

I do feel HTB teaches alot of skills
Unlike LeetCode which is more of a craze among companies

[terse dirge]

are you able to mount the USB on your host machine?

[supple plume]

yes and I installed the iso image inside

but when I boot my other computer

it doesnt boot into the flash drive

even after changin the boot priority

[terse dirge]

did you check for it in the bios?

[supple plume]

yes

[terse dirge]

does it see it?

[supple plume]

but when it gets there it just doesnt boot

yes

[terse dirge]

does your other computer work with other images on that USB?

[supple plume]

I think so

[spiral steppe]

Hi

[supple plume]

but I would have to try to be sure

I already spent 5 hours this weekend

so I'll try next

[terse dirge]

also wdym by "doesn't boot"? Like you don't get a grub menu or anything? just a black screen?

[supple plume]

yes

and then it fallsback to arch

that's installed

[spiral steppe]

So for secret santa, i made a challenge, it start with like a paper with some text on it and goes from there where after 10 simple and small challenges he user automatically receives a gift card to whatsapp. It includes lots of things. Was thinking is it a good idea. So person would see an envelope on his desk, open it and start. He is a pentester.

[lofty warren]

a brainfuck machine, seriously

[supple plume]

change your username to 1pwn already

[terse dirge]

I would

1. check other OSs on that USB
2. check etcher installation
3. check BIOS for if it's UEFI or EFI or BIOS
4. Check BIOS for updates

[supple plume]

Dang it

I already saved the screenshot

[lofty warren]

still be 0pwn

[spiral steppe]

For example the challenge that i created, includes a small NFC tag sticker on a surface. User can to scan and see the data. And also some stuff with invisible ink and uv lights. And the other normal things like encryption, encoding, web bugs, unique things

[supple plume]

Ill try that next week

Also this Christmas days

I'll be alone

So I'll probably get void and rice it

[knotty iron]

Slackware

[supple plume]

Slackware my ass

[spiral steppe]

I want to include more things in the challenge like things related to bluetooth hacking and the even looked for ODB2 and if there is a way to simulate car hacking.

[terse dirge]

@scenic maple what kernel version are you running?

I'm about to upgrade to 6.18

[spiral steppe]

I was looking for bluetooth locks that would be nice to pentest. For example like connect via bluetooth and then bruteforce the PIN and it gets unlocked.

How would you guys react to like a challenge from secret santa?

[supple plume]

depends

[knotty iron]

parrot sec does it better

[spiral steppe]

Depends on what

[knotty iron]

[lime trout]

i wouldnt call it a serious rule break

just another instance of stupid discord features

[terse dirge]

I thought it was a server invite lol, my bad

[crimson cargo]

What did he do?

[lime trout]

discord quest bullshit

[supple plume]

xd

who fd up?

[lime trout]

oh well, i blocked discord quest links now

[terse dirge]

some dude posted his discord quest thing and I thought it was a server invite

[lofty warren]

hey guys, can i type a discord[.]com?

[supple plume]

this dude @mystic harbor ?

[terse dirge]

no

[lofty warren]

not invite link but im really scare to get mute by server bot

[hollow island]

why would there be a link to share discord quest progress if it's an offense? doesn't make sense. sorry I'm new

[terse dirge]

you're fine, it was my mistake thinking it was a server invite. I've never seen anyone post their discord quest thing before tbh

[obtuse fern]

An offense in this server doesnt make it a problem overall

[terse dirge]

@supple plume which void image were you using?

[supple plume]

https://repo-default.voidlinux.org/live/current/void-live-x86_64-20250202-base.iso

[terse dirge]

that's the correct one for 64 bit architecture

[obtuse fern]

My void is /dev/null

[supple plume]

yeah, I have that

[spiral steppe]

By the way I was asking all cutting edge AI LLMs that I have a Base64 string and I want it in Chinese. They all messed up. I guess it difficult. First of all in chinese there is no small and capital and then some chinese characters are like sentences themselves.

[terse dirge]

not sure why you'd get a black screen and kicked into arch

[supple plume]

idk, maybe there is something wrong with the flash drive

I'll try with another one

[obtuse fern]

What's your goal... because im confused why you'd want to

[visual hollow]

@supple plumeChess?

[spiral steppe]

Because I want to present chinese text, the user translates, finds base64 decodes and so on

[supple plume]

Mmmm 🫦

[obtuse fern]

Also thats just not how LLMs work. They're predictive text engines

[supple plume]

Yeah

[obtuse fern]

'Translates' youll need to elaborate further

[visual hollow]

https://lichess.org/CboOqFDd

[obtuse fern]

Because translating isnt a 'simple' task

[spiral steppe]

Well you have chinese text, you translate that text using some translator and you end up with base64 but it wasnt that easy to do that

[obtuse fern]

Its not easy to do that period

[spiral steppe]

Well I found that out. Its not easy. There should be some kind of special encoding

[obtuse fern]

Because it sounds like you want it to return the pinyin not the translation

Pinyin = the Latin alphabet transliteration

I.e. ni hao, and you'd need to strip accent markers

[spiral steppe]

Yeah Claude returned like a mapping table. Each character to english character

But the end user has to have that info or some kind of hint

[obtuse fern]

Yeah... thats not how Chinese works

[shut hawk]

in which module i can learn kali linux?

[obtuse fern]

Chinese is an idiogram language, so one character to represent concepts/ideas

[spiral steppe]

Yeah, I bet there are some characters that are almost sentences lol

[obtuse fern]

There is none. There are modules that teach you about Linux though

[terse dirge]

wdym by "learn kali linux"?

if you mean learning linux then just use linux to learn it

[shut hawk]

well i'm using windows rn I can't switch directly without knowing basics

[obtuse fern]

Not really. A couple characters but no singular character. But like I said, your goal sounds more like you want the pinyin rather than the translation

Because with the pinyin you have a better chance at getting hits

[spiral steppe]

I want the actual characters to be printed on a paper the end user will proper take a photo of that and try to translate with chatgpt, i need cool chinese characters

[obtuse fern]

But its also just an insane cryptographic challenge to begin with. Aside from being a gimmick, there's very little practical application

[spiral steppe]

I really dont need practical stuff its just for fun

[obtuse fern]

The task as you present it is impossible to generate a b64 string from Chinese character translation

[terse dirge]

everything in linux is a file, there's this thing called the terminal you use for installing stuff, fixing, and customizing your system. Now you know enough to install it

https://youtu.be/rrB13utjYV4

[terse dirge]

@shut hawk

[spiral steppe]

Well I understood that from the LLMs as they all gave me bad answers. So i decided to go with normal chinese

[tacit oak]

hey guys, the annual plans for silver and gold and the monthly gold plan are not available for me. They litteraly have a "not available" button. anyone else has this?

[obtuse fern]

Im not speaking from an LLM perspective, im speaking from the perspective of generating the challenge

[obtuse fern]

Reach out to support

[tacit oak]

Thank you @obtuse fern

[knotty iron]

i write ping not tragedy prms

[terse dirge]

stuff like navigating in the terminal come with time and this might be unpopular but linux ricing is one of the best ways to learn linux and avoid taking courses if you're able to on linux because you'll get comfortable and better by using it

[native plume]

Are you looking for something like that?

https://github.com/BiggerDABOSS/BatchObfuscator/blob/master/obfuscator.cmd

Btw it's from this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdoINmJFw3M&t=2710s

[spiral steppe]

I am curious if there is a way i can create some text that if decoded properly can make a 3D model that you can input into software and whatever is shown in the 3D model is like the hint to the next challenge

[knotty iron]

change pfp

[spiral steppe]

Why

[knotty iron]

i dont like dragons

[spiral steppe]

I will check that

[spiral steppe]

Its a special kind of dragon

[exotic pendant]

[visual hollow]

@supple plume You're too good LMAO

[supple plume]

can I give you some advice?

[visual hollow]

Sure!

[supple plume]

here or dm>

[visual hollow]

You can DM

[terse dirge]

I recommend Manjaro as a starting distro because it'll force you to learn it and gives you a "foot gun" that if you screw up seriously like deleting your file system, it'll let you do it and not have as many safeguards in place, with something like mint you can't even run sudo I think. Having the full control of your OS is part of the linux experience

[gilded wraith]

I have a question. I've already started solving the easy machines; I've solved 5 , but almost every time I get stuck on a specific part I don't know. So I research it, and sometimes I read Rite Up, but I focus on that part, understand it first, write it down, and then try it myself. Am I on the right track, or not?

[terse dirge]

and something like Ubuntu doesn't let you switch out core packages without installing them from source

and Debian has a weird security model

[obtuse fern]

you need to work backwards

start with the end result, then walk your way back to the problem

[terse dirge]

I know of this because I was trying to install a more up to date version of coreutils for linux from scratch and Ubuntu wasn't allowing me to switch it out without installing from source

[obtuse fern]

the problem is you're trying to create the problem forward instead of backwards; start with a result then create the solution

[wraith berry]

Making text decode into a 3D model as input to a software is not impossible, but will def require pulling out some hairs. I guess it really depends on how complex your 3D model is and what graphics framework you will use.

[spiral steppe]

I was thinking multiple times to create something like the below

site1.com,3,5
site2.com,7,8
site3.com,6,3

Like script will go to site 1 get the 3rd character from line 5 then site 2 and 7th character from line 8 and so on and that would end up to be the flag. Input would be a list of 100 sites for example

[spiral steppe]

I disagree. Specially if its a simple object. Am not talking complex.

[wraith berry]

A possible approach, the text can decode into co-ordinate metrics to allow the software to render the model if the model is just meant to be loaded in and not created from scratch

[spiral steppe]

For example there could be some coordinates or something also encoded in some way or even visually put in a way that you can draw something

But am not only thinking in terms of coordinates but beyond that

Some tricky cool method

Like for example you could have text blocks, if you layer those blocks one on top of another you end up with a shape like the statue liberty for example

[wraith berry]

If the wrong text is decoded, then the model will have the wrong coordinate metrics and won't render properly. That's the simple approach.
If your thinking about using text and decoding that for metrics that's used for shaders, buffers, graphics itself then hats off to you cause It will take a lot of time but a cool project I guess

[wraith berry]

Is it an ASCII 3D model?

[spiral steppe]

No, i guess you didnt get my point. You build the statue of liberty from the bottom to the top. Layer by layer with text

Think of 2D planes stacked over each other until they make a shape. Not sure if its completely possible. Sort of like how 3D printing works I guess

The text would be different for the part where the statue is, like have distinct characters or bold or whatever

For example if you have the letter O and you stack many O’s on top of each other you get a cylinder

I think its possible for example to build Burj Khalifa this way lets say.

[lofty warren]

whut the heck

wall of texts

[knotty iron]

tldr

[supple plume]

https://tenor.com/view/imostergolfra-gif-25274972

[wraith berry]

Okay, say I have a string "Hello World" and decodes to 0x00005EF6 which can be mapped to an array to make the first layer of the object (lets use "0" in this case).
With all the other strings that get decoded into stacks of "0"s, the final result is a cylinder, but what happens if the wrong text is entered?

[spiral steppe]

O
OOOO
OO

That would be the base for example for burj khalifa. Well thats over simplified but you get the point

Sorry first O should be in the center the top one

[spiral steppe]

Am talking about the idea first. I hope you understood what I meant.

[wraith berry]

I get the concept, and it is possible

but there's so many ways you can implement it so I'm just curious

[supple plume]

.

[spiral steppe]

Would be a cool project. Like you send this text to a program that decodes and you have a 3M model. I think an LLM could help build such a tool.

[knotty iron]

use hand

[spiral steppe]

But honestly am trying to think of more innovative ways.

[supple plume]

I want to flex my terminal yet another time

there

[knotty iron]

mine is jus basic

[supple plume]

do you like mine?

I made an auto install script

https://github.com/echoesofwhoami/echoes-bash-prompt

it's also very customizable

I refactored the bash prompt blocks into functions so you can place whatever you want easily

it is also git aware

btw

[knotty iron]

mm... im saving that for later to be honest

[supple plume]

np

[supple plume]

but it installs running sh install.sh

or chmod... etc

[spiral steppe]

I was wonder if i have two blocks of text. I keep one as the bottom (surface) and the other put vertically then based on some rules you can link some characters to anothers and in that way draw a 3D model

[supple plume]

quit yapping and build that project already

[knotty iron]

dont worry. ima install you

i got 3 new ones that im working on increasing impact

[muted olive]

same, mine's LPE

but yet to prove PE

3 window RCEs

[muted olive]

do you need to test on 11?

I tested on 10

but same driver is in 11 so it should work

[exotic pendant]

i use w11 yea

[exotic pendant]

for my bugs?

it should work on both

[muted olive]

mine. found one in driver which is present on both

same year etc

[supple plume]

yo

hey

I just updated the whole thing rn

amazing btw

I refactored so it lives in $HOME/.config and can be update easily

[knotty iron]

right where you need to be maybe

[supple plume]

it's cool to see my config in other's people setup

[supple plume]

take a look on the newest commit

[knotty iron]

oh okay

[supple plume]

take alook on the aliases

I made some for convenient htb stuff

[knotty iron]

i have witnessed the awesomeness

[supple plume]

that is 3% of what I have in my private repos

[knotty iron]

i want it all

[supple plume]

hahah

[knotty iron]

gotta get this vpn richt quick

[supple plume]

wdym

[knotty iron]

i dunno

[supple plume]

so you go to htb

[knotty iron]

i have warez

[supple plume]

download the vpn config file

[knotty iron]

i did

[supple plume]

and the aliases can handle everything else

[lofty warren]

too much pinky overhere

[supple plume]

vpnfilemv

and connvpn

so when you do a machine you can do this

settargetip 10.x.x.x

and then nmap -sC -sV $(targetip)

addhost $(targetip) whatever.htb

and it updates the /etc/hosts

[knotty iron]

i love it when you whisper sweet nothings over my shoulder in your beach hat

[supple plume]

well you can see everything else

[knotty iron]

i always wanted a use for my music folder

[supple plume]

one last thing

tofile command

emulates cat <<'EOF'>

but instead of writing EOF at the end

just press ctrl-d

[knotty iron]

nnn it is control c

[supple plume]

no, ctrl-c to cancel

[knotty iron]

right

[supple plume]

ctrl-d is EOF

[knotty iron]

copy

[supple plume]

but sends it, tofile can save EOF as a string

[knotty iron]

lol

[supple plume]

I should put all this in the readme I think

[knotty iron]

would be a good idea

[hoary egret]

It would be the best advice if anybody would tell me where can I practise removing the jamf of mac?

[spice terrace]

ffmpeg be usin Linux Privilege Escalation Awesome Script

0_0

hax!!!

maybe he just converting some video files codecs or something

;p

I was gonna say half an hour ago at the "i like windows" ... yeah its okay but linux is the goat

[hoary egret]

do you know what tool I can use to remove that jamf,I have been failingly trying

[spice terrace]

its not installed its a shell script\

rm linpeas.sh

did you pipe it in?

[hoary egret]

not old . I will be using AI if it gives any ways

[spice terrace]

box making, like a wooden box, or a computer box? ^_^

sometimes if its a semi fresh install ill full leeroy jenkins it and do a rm -rf /

[hoary egret]

if I can really remove that ,I am gonna eat 1 full box of cake, and1 bottle of wine ---what a pleasure it would be.....

[spice terrace]

always reverse engineer every softwares you get to see what they are doing, thats what i do

re formart)

formart is a good mart place\

format

[hoary egret]

what do I install?Clarify --sounds cool

[spice terrace]

huh? im just saying reinstall os and dont ever make a mistake again from there, run unknown softwares on a VM ect

full format

burn that hard drive

then he will have to do it 8)

he will learn ultimately

so its good

Alt+F4?

Ctrl+Alt+Del?

[Uploading a Virus...]

do you think im actually uploading a virus?

fail at life, everyone HAS to make mistakes to learn

its hard but thats life...

but sorry for that my friend @unborn estuary I didnt mean to offend anyone when I put "full leeroy jenkins" I just figur3ed... ok... yeah sorry

[hoary egret]

if somebody had paid amazing sum of money would you be able to do that removal thing on mac or give up?

[hoary egret]

what is that full leeroy thing?

[spice terrace]

Without any money I would do something unseen, amazing, you just need motivation (for some thats money, not for me)

haha

Five dolla foot looooooong

haha ok I gotta go, anyone can do anything if you put your mind to it, make everything into VERY simple steps, ect. gl everyone, love, have a great day, do something amazing. I'm doing too 🙂

[knotty iron]

debian is not bad

but arch is goat

[hoary egret]

but it is possible ,right?
